Behavior 101: Lesson 2
From attention to something more tangible...
In Lesson 1, we spoke about attention-maintained behavior.
The behavior is repeated because the player wants attention.
Receiving attention gives the player reinforcement.
Attention-seeking behavior continues.
In 2023 and beyond(until they ban TikTok or some shit) you’re going to see a lot of kids exhibit attention-seeking behavior.
However, there will be other common player archetypes you will see in your team. In Lesson 2, we will discuss tangibly-maintained behavior. The 2nd most common archetype you will see (in my opinion, depending on the level)
Tangible Maintained Behavior
In the attention-maintained player archetype, the player engages in behavior for attention.
